The Whitlams - Fancy Lover lyrics
Your rating:
Have you ever had a fancy lover? Gone crazy trying to keep up with her It's like you're standing in the darkness In the theatre up the back Joining her ovation When you wish you could distract her take her home You had to try Don't some great loves start with someone aiming so high? Have you ever had a fancy lover? Thrown everything that you've got at her She's the winter that's so bitter you'll cut wood all summer long She's two long years of thinking going into one old song and that aint good You were doing fine You knew your chances and your place in the line Fancy lovers they need fancy lovers of their own You'll camouflage your soul for them Where do they get to meet their own kind of people? Is there a light on the steeple that only fancy people see? When you try and keep a fancy lover You force her hand and then discover She wouldn't look so perfect if it was just for you Is there a guy over your shoulder that she may have noticed too? You'll never know You had to be in You bet on hearts boy even when you won't win And then she'll take the field against you Fighting above your weight and your height One hundred ways to hit the canvas A thousand days to beat the count
